Storm Surge On Ride POV | Thorpe Park

Join Scott, Becca and Stuz as they take a ride on the unpredictable Storm Surge at Thorpe Park, which opened at Thorpe Park for the 2011 season and is located within the Amity Cove 'disaster' area of Thorpe Park, where the Octopus Garden area once stood.

Storm Surge riders sit in a large inflatable boat and head up a 64ft lift hill, once at the top, the boat descends down a spiral chute. Velcro is strategically attached to the base of the chute to make the boats spin raucously to the bottom. At the bottom of the slide as you head back towards the station, various water features such as guest-operated water guns and water explosions soak riders.

Storm Surge is a second hand attraction at Thorpe Park, having previously operated at another park beforehand and was considered by some enthusiasts a strange move by Thorpe Park. Storm Surge started life in an American theme park called Cypress Gardens. Merlin Entertainments acquired Cypress Park in early 2010 and transformed it into Legoland Florida, however, no longer deemed suitable for Legoland, Storm Surge was packed up and sent across the Atlantic and reconstructed at Thorpe Park.
